Electrum password issue

Hi,
I'm new here. Please forgive any mistakes of etiquette  Smiley

I'm having a problem with using my Electrum client. I encrypted it with a password using the windows screen keyboard, which Electrum accepted. I used numbers letters and symbols. However since the encryption it wont accept the password.
Trying to send bitcoins and filling in the password a dialogue box pops up saying:

'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xa7' in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)

I know the character referred above is a §.
Can someone please assist me in resetting my password or figuring out what to do to reaquire access?

Regards
